A little more info. These drives have been in these computers for
at least a year working fine. When I try to boot the IIci or 7500
the drives spin up but then I get the flashing question mark. Could
they have become unmounted some how? I've also tried reseating the
ram and vram, but that didn't seem to do anything. I also was able
to boot the 7500 to an external CD (since now the internal CD
doesn't seem to want work either) with system 8, and it could see
the internal cd and an unmounted drive which I'm assuming is the
HD. Could unplugging the original drive have done something when I
tried to add a slave drive, like a conflict that got rid of the
start up drive?
Thanks

If you didn't have different SCSI ID's for each drive- original
should be 0, other can be 1 or 2, you will have issues.
